Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the typical ADHD medications amphetamine and methylphenidate? Shouldn't these two powerful stimulants be medication

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the typical ADHD medications amphetamine and methylphenidate?
Shouldn't these two powerful stimulants be medications of last resort?
- testvox 8y agoThey are, but ADHD is particularly unresponsive to other interventions. So those drugs are usually what ends up being the only effective treatment anyways.
- krageon 8y agoGiving methylphenidate to children with ADHD actually improves their symptoms later in life (even if they stop taking the medication).
